4. Determine which post
of battery is grounded
(connected) to the
chassis. If the negative
post is grounded to the
chassis (as in most
vehicles), see Figure 1
and instruction 5a. If
the positive post is
grounded to the
chassis, see
instruction 5b.
5. a) For NEGATIVE
GROUNDED vehicle,
connect POSITIVE (Red) clip from the battery
charger to the POSITIVE (POS, P,+) ungrounded
post of the battery.
b) For POSITIVE GROUNDED vehicle, connect the
NEGATIVE (Black) clip from the battery charger to

CHARGING A BATTERY OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE
CAUTION: A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE
BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A
SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
1. Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P,+)
battery post usually has a larger diameter than
NEGATIVE (NEG, N,–) post.
2. Attach a cable (not provided) to the NEGATIVE (NEG,
N, –) battery post. This cable must be a minimum of
24" long, and of a wire gauge that is no lighter than
the wire gauge of the charger's output cables (battery
cables and booster cables work well).
3. Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE
(POS, P, +) post of battery.
4. Position yourself and the free end of the cable
(installed in step #2) as FAR away from the battery as
possible. FACING AWAY FROM THE BATTERY,
connect the NEGATIVE (Black) charger clip to the free
end of the cable.

the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) ungrounded post of
the battery. (This arrangement is usually found in
pre-1970 foreign vehicles or pre-1970 farm
tractors. This is a rare occurrence.)
6. Connect the remaining battery charger clip to the
vehicle chassis or engine block, as far away from the
battery as possible. Do not connect the clip to
carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet metal body parts.
Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or
engine block.
7. When disconnecting charger, turn all switches with an
OFF position to off, disconnect ac cord, remove clip
from vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from
battery terminal.
8. Refer to the Operating Instructions for information on
setting selector switches. Be sure to refer to the
instructions for your model of charger.
5. When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse
sequence of connecting procedure and break first
connection while as far away from battery as practical.

4. If engine fails to start, charge battery for another
10–20 minutes and attempt to start the engine again.
Note: The charger is equipped with an automatic reset
circuit breaker to protect the battery charger from overload
conditions. This circuit breaker will trip if you crank the
engine too long at one time. If this happens, wait six to
seven minutes. The breaker will reset automatically and
engine starting or battery charging can resume.
CAUTION: BATTERY MUST BE INSTALLED IN
